Despite having great Statcast numbers, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has only hit nine home runs this season, none of which were at home despite offseason changes to Rogers Centre. Bobby Witt Jr. may have a low OPS, but he's on pace to hit 27 homers and steal 51 bases. Reid Detmers' 4.79 ERA is misleading as his FIP and other stats suggest he has real fantasy upside.
